The bulletin Of the United States Els h
Commission states, on the authority Of
Col. NJ. Mcdonald, that the total distri-
button Of shad fry for the season OF 1886
amounted to over 90,000,000. AS the en-
tire number Of shad taken for market is
something less than 100000, II Will be
seen that for every shad taken from the
waters this season Tor market there have
been artiticiaily hatched and returned TO
the waters fifteen young shad. Assuming
that the eDtlre cost OF production and
Distribution has hesn $4,000 X and it will
not exceed that, The young fish have
been produced and distributed over the
United States at rate OF about $215 per
million, or about torty-six fry for cent.
Another interesting fact TO note ia that
for the entire time up to and including
young shad, while tor 1886 alone the total
was over 90,000,O00.
